Though her expedition started out well prepared, our heroine's journey to the temple of the Queen of Snakes hits a snag when her entire crew is wiped out and a rock slide traps her inside. Gorgeous, clever, and visually unique, the Queen of Snakes is a fantastic point-and-click adventure more than worth your time.

When the right combination is entered, you can click the painting to remove it from the frame to reveal a hidden compartment in the wall.

Take the LIZARD DISC being held by the small snake-woman statue within the compartment.

Move back twice to return to the column room.

Near the lower right corner of the screen is a green, patterned stone with an image of a lizard at the top.

Place the LIZARD DISC over the matching deisgn at the top of the stone to open the floor at the center of the room, revealing a hidden stairway.

Click the stairs to move down. Your character slips and falls into the side room where you'll see a locked door and seated statues reading books.

First inspect the book being held by the statue sitting down on the right side of the room.

On the left page you'll see the drawing of a star-shaped disc with a line pointing to the head of a large statue.

And on the right page is a diagram of a gear, lever, and mechanism connected by snake-shaped arrows.

Zoom out and inspect the book held by the statue at the left side of the room.

Note the pattern of semi-circles on the left page: the circle on the left is black at the top, white a the bottom. The middle circle is reversed with black at the bottom and white at the top. The right circle is identical to the left circle.

On the right page you'll find a drawing of a snake and an encircled blue dot just below the snake's mouth.

Click the right page to turn it.

Cut into the right side of the book is a hidden space containing the GREEN FIGURINE, take it.

On this left page is another drawing, depicting a snake king holding a staff. An snakelike arrow connects his staff with a diagram at the top of a page. The diagram indicates a pie-shaped section being inserted into the cutout space of a circle.

Remember all of this information for later, and step away from the book.

Inspect the picture on the wall above the left seated statue.

At the top of the frame is a snake that looks identical to the one seen in the book a moment ago. Just under it's mouth is a blue dot matching the image in the book as well.

Give this blue dot a click to discover a secret compartment behind the painting.

Pull the lever to open the second compartment. Take the MEDALLION PIECE (2/2) from the compartment revealed at the left side of the mechanism.

Add the two MEDALLION PIECES from your inventory together to create the completed MEDALLION.

Move back twice to return to the hallway.

Inspect the framed picture hanging on the left wall.

At the bottom of the frame you'll see a familiar pattern: three diamonds containing red triangles.

Click the diamonds to adjust the location of the red triangle within each diamond. Recreate the pattern you found within the panel on the lever device in the previous room.

The red triangle in the left diamond should be in the upper left quadrant.

In the middle diamond, the red triangle is at the lower right quadrant.

The red triangle in the right diamond is at the upper right quadrant.

Once the right combination is entered, click the painting to reveal the cache behind it.

Take the ORNATE TRIANGLE that the red snake statuette has its tail wrapped around.

Back up to the main view of the room, then go through the doorway at the end of the hall to enter the room containing a massive snake statue. From there, walk through the right doorway to the room with a female statue perched on top of a large, triangular stone.

Click the front of the triangular stone to remove the cover and reveal the mini-puzzle.

Click the sections of the triangle in the correct order to find the hidden secret inside.

When a correct section of the triangle is selected, the block will become highlighted with a reddish tint.

However, the puzzle will automatically reset if you click an incorrect block out of order.

Start with with the small piece at the top, then work your way counter-clockwise around the triangle.

Great ending--worried it was going to be one of those obnoxious cliffhangers, but it's pretty satisfying:

Author has an amazing sense of humor about her own setup. I'm charmed that everyone fortuitously made it out alive, artifacts intact (love tiger dude).

Also loved the tongue-in-cheek homages.

Indy, what the heck were you doing in a temple of snakes? Bad, bad from the start.

Couple things around the Temple seem to suggest a hoax, esp. the anachronistic contents of the closet (including ubercreepy barbie/ponyface/bratz doll picture, augh). Maybe it's just meant to be funny (Jungle Gods--they're just like us!), but hey. Curious if it'll be returned to in the next segment.

The artwork is so intricate and detailed, very much the antithesis of the point-and-click games from Japan, which are so antiseptic in their style. Someone should write a dissertation on how cultures affect the styles of their games.

I feel like I'm going mad or I'm in the Twilight Zone. I could have sworn that I played another Jo99 game on here. It had lots of sciencey machines and brains in jars, but I can't find it in the archives. Does anyone else remember it? Has my cheese slid of my cracker???

@Dandy, no worries - your cheese is still firmly ensconced. I had the same reaction when I saw this game. The style of the artwork is very familiar, though the one I remember is one where you are on an island. Not sure why they're no longer on this site (or where I saw them if they've never been on JIG), but you can find them on Jo99's own website. Love the artwork!

I am being mesmerized and entertained playing The Queen of Snakes. Wow, this look is quite uniquely surprising- reminds me of a big paint-by-number picture/mural. I love this complex design,kind of abstractly filled with hidden animals and things. I've done well up until going down the ladder, below the ground; the waterfall section, and not knowing what to look for in the other 2 or 3 rooms at that same level. (But I am not giving up.)
I have 8 things: 1 gear, 1 lizard medallion thing, 2 green & 1 blue totem guys, 1 green eye, 1 green turtle & 1 snake. What do I do next down here?
